Temporary diversions and lane restrictions will be in place on the North-South Expressway in Johor on March 10 for rock blasting works.
KUALA LUMPUR: PLUS Malaysia Berhad has announced temporary traffic diversions and restricted lane arrangements to facilitate rock blasting works for the North-South Expressway Widening Project in Johor.
The diversions are scheduled to take effect from 10 pm on March 10 until 5 am on March 11, affecting the northbound stretch from KM23.9 to KM26.1 and the southbound stretch from KM24.7 to KM26.1.
These measures are necessary to allow for preparatory works and area clearance for the NSE Additional Lane Construction Project between Yong Peng (North) and Senai (North).
For maximum safety during the blasting operation, the stretch between the Kulai and Senai Intersection (North) will be temporarily closed to all vehicles for several minutes at around 1 am.
“The route will be reopened as soon as blasting, cleaning, and safety checks have been completed,” the company stated in a release.
PLUS has advised highway users to plan their journeys in advance and utilise the PLUS application for real-time traffic updates.
Motorists can also access the latest traffic information via the PUTRI Virtual Assistant, the X@plustrafik application, and Electronic Message Displays at selected locations.
Members of the public requiring assistance can contact the PLUSLine at 1800-88-0000 for emergencies.
